I'm Not the Young Lady's Dream Girl - [Vol. 1] Chapter 52
[Vol. 1] Chapter 52: The Game Begins.
Rhaenys’s mood was pleasant at this moment.
She opened her arms, feeling the divine power flowing within her body, which was a rare sensation.
Although this divine power seemed to still reject her, it was understandable since it belonged to Dark Pupil. However, it didn’t matter. It was hers now, and she only needed to adapt slowly.
All the pretense she had maintained for so long had finally paid off, her goal had been achieved. Now, it was time to play a game with the girls in front of her.
Especially with the silver-haired girl, Yinyue. Was that her name now? Still so plain.
“Why are you here?” Yinyue aimed her sword at Rhaenys.
“Heh, even though your body is exhausted, you’re still holding a sword against me, always forcing yourself,” Rhaenys chuckled.
Just as she had said, Yinyue’s current condition wasn’t good after the full-force blow earlier. It can be said that it is difficult to move.
Yinyue had intended to intimidate Rhaenys to stall for time until her mother and the others arrived to support her. But unexpectedly, Rhaenys had immediately noticed.
Was her acting that bad?
“You just stay here for now, the game is about to begin.”
Rhaenys wasn’t in the best condition either now. After all, the divine power was rejecting her.
Before the game started, she had other things to do.
…………
Rhaenys transformed into mist and approached Zach’s side. She transformed the mist into a giant hand and grabbed Zach.
As Zach, who was caught, slowly opened his eyes and looked at Rhaenys in front of him, he wondered what had happened.
Why was Rhaenys here? She should have already become the deity’s sacrifice, right? And speaking of the deity, where did Lord go?
At that moment, Rhaenys snapped her fingers, causing the giant hand made of mist to exert immense force, causing Zach to feel intense pain and fully regain consciousness.
“Rhaenys, what are you doing? Let me go!”
Zach began to struggle, but at this moment, his body was already very weak, and he couldn’t break free from the giant hand at all.
Seeing the situation, Zach had no choice but to resort to his usual method. He attempted to control Rhaenys again with his abilities, only to find it completely useless. When did her mental strength become so strong?
“Is this your final resistance? How weak you are. I’m tired of this. It’s time to deal with you,” Rhaenys said, her voice dripping with disdain.
As soon as Rhaenys finished speaking, Zach began to feel the energy draining rapidly from his body.
What was happening?
Realizing something was wrong, Zach struggled desperately. Rhaenys seemed intent on claiming his abilities as her own.
Why had things turned out like this? He should have been the first under the deity. Right, the deity! He still had the deity to help him!
“What you’re doing, the Great Lord won’t let you get away with it. I am His follower.”
Zach tried to intimidate Rhaenys in the name of the deity, hoping she would release him. But instead of fear, Rhaenys burst into laughter.
“Hahaha…”
Zach’s words made Rhaenys laugh so hard that her stomach hurt and she almost died from laughter.
“What are you laughing at? You’ll see, the deity will come and deal with you,” Zach couldn’t understand Rhaenys’s behavior.
“Why am I laughing? Maybe you should feel the power on me,” Rhaenys said, releasing a hint of divine power to let him understand her current situation better.
With this reminder, Zach carefully felt the aura around Rhaenys. How could she possess the Great Lord’s power? And he couldn’t sense the Great Lord’s presence anymore.
No matter how much he prayed, the deity didn’t respond. It couldn’t be… The Great Lord was supposed to be invincible.
“It seems you’ve also guessed. Now it’s your turn,” Rhaenys said, flashing a devilish smile.
Zach trembled uncontrollably because he felt the energy draining from his body even faster.
“No! You can’t do this to me. I am…”
Zach’s voice grew fainter and eventually he couldn’t make a sound anymore.
Not long after, as he wished, Rhaenys released him. But by this time, Zach had lost all vitality, turning into a lifeless corpse.
“Your abilities are quite impressive, but now they’re mine,” Rhaenys declared.
At this point, Rhaenys had acquired Zach’s abilities. Next, it was time to test them out!
…………
Just then, Rhaenys returned to Yinyue’s side.
Yinya finally overcame all obstacles and approached Rhaenys from behind, raising her giant hammer, ready to strike her down in one blow.
Rhaenys smirked, thinking it was perfect timing. She had just been thinking that she needed an experimental subject. Well, let’s try you out.
Rhaenys locked onto Yinya, and as she was about to strike, Rhaenys used her abilities.
Yinya halted her hammer mid-swing and fell to her knees, seemingly regarding Rhaenys as her master.
“Hahaha, this power is truly convenient,” Rhaenys chuckled.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yeming sneaked behind Rhaenys, preparing to attack her. Her sharp claws tore through Rhaenys’s body. No, it should be said, through Rhaenys’s clone made of purple mist.
When Yeming realized his mistake, Yinya’s giant hammer was already coming at her. Yeming transformed back into her cat form, agilely evading the attack.
“Little rascal, did you try to ambush big sister?”
Yeming heard the voice behind him and realized things were not going well.
Rhaenys extended her hand, and a powerful force sent Yeming flying. Just as things were about to take a turn for the worse, Yinyue finally recovered from her weakened state and successfully caught Yeming.
“Yeming, are you okay?” Yinyue asked, holding Yeming in her arms.
As Yeming slowly opened his eyes, Yinyue was relieved to see her conscious. But her relief was short-lived as she noticed something wrong. Yeming’s eyes lacked their usual gleam, clearly indicating he was under someone’s control.
Yeming extended her claws and attacked Yinyue. Despite the pain, Yinyue endured the blow. Yeming broke free from Yinyue’s embrace and ran to Rhaenys’s side.
“How does it feel to be hurt by your own family, ?Silver Light??” Rhaenys asked with a smirk. [1]
“Not great, and by the way, you got my name wrong,” Yinyue replied, covering her wounds and treating herself.
“I didn’t get it wrong. That’s your name, or rather, your original name.”
“My original name? What nonsense are you talking about?”
Rhaenys’s words confused Yinyue. What did she mean by her original name? She had no memory of such a name, and her mother had never given her any nicknames or the like.
“Sorry, I almost forgot. You’ve lost your memories now,” Rhaenys waved her hand dismissively.
Yinyue didn’t want to entertain her ramblings any longer. She picked up ?Daytime?, ready to take down Rhaenys. But Yinya and Yeming stood in her way, launching attacks at her. Yinyue didn’t want to harm them, so she chose to dodge instead.
“You’re still the same, unwilling to hurt those close to you even when you’re injured yourself.”
Rhaenys’s voice echoed once again, annoying Yinyue. How did she act like she understood her so well? Yinyue disliked this presumptuous person.
“Let’s make this game even more enjoyable, then.”
Rhaenys clapped her hands, and a man with blue hair appeared, joining the fight.
Seeing the additional enemy, Yinyue felt overwhelmed. When did Ice Abyss get controlled too?
Although Yinyue now possessed S-class strength and had ?Daytime?’s assistance, she could manage for now. But it was only temporary. In a while, her enhanced state would fade, and she would be like a sheep surrounded by wolves.
“It seems you can still handle it, then let’s add some more spice!”
Rhaenys channeled her inner power, and a giant light ring appeared above her. The ring emitted an eerie glow, and any Supernatural Beasts that were caught in its light became Rhaenys’s minions and marched towards the city.
Furthermore, this light also affected Yinyue. She found that she could no longer communicate with the light element, which meant her energy supply was interrupted.
Outside the city, Yinyue sensed that thousands of Supernatural Beasts were advancing towards them, which was absolutely disastrous.
After dodging the attack of the giant hammer, Yinyue felt a sudden intense chill, indicating Ice Abyss’s ultimate move.
In an instant, the city was covered in ice. Ice Abyss collapsed due to excessive use of power, but Yeming and Yinya, having received instructions from Rhaenys in advance, had taken precautions and were not frozen.
However, Yinyue wasn’t as lucky. Caught off guard, her body was now frozen, temporarily immobilizing her.
Seeing that they still couldn’t hit Yinyue, Rhaenys ordered Ice Abyss to use up all his energy for a powerful attack to trap Yinyue.
What could Yinyue do next?
Yinya swung her giant hammer, which was about to strike Yinyue’s head. If she took this blow, Yinyue would either die or be severely wounded.
In this critical moment, a chain latched onto Yinya’s hand, halting her attack. Yuluo took this opportunity to save Yinyue.
“Finally, you’re here? Another special guest in this game.”
Although she hadn’t actually sent out invitations, it didn’t matter.
Since the other special guest had arrived, the real game was about to begin.
